Well... long time no update.
I can explain. First I had a fic trade, then a request, and just in general I had a hard time making this chapter since I didn't want it to be a repeat of Unwelcome Surprise.
I managed to make it different, but it also ended up being very short so sorry about that!
With all that out of the way, enjoy!
Beast Boy's POV
I stared blankly at the window as the others talked, feeling oblivious to all their words.
The last fight was all that my mind had room for. Just replaying it over and over, in shock.
The first two figures were no surprise. We'd fought Robin about a hundred times now, and while Blackfire had only joined recently we still remembered the last battle, and her big reveal.
Adonis had been attacking a nearby bank, and we'd opted to have Raven and Starfire go over there and deal with him instead, because even if these two were more dangerous the girls were also still at risk of losing control of their powers.
"Robin…" I quietly snarled.
However before I could attack him, I felt a large rock crash into me and knock me across the room.
I pulled myself back up, turning in confusion to see my attacker. There was no way that Robin had the strength to pick something that large up. And while Blackfire did I was looking at her -and Robin- when I was hit. It couldn't have been either of them.
Nothing could have prepared me for who they were though.
With shining blue eyes and flowing blonde hair, wearing a gray suit with black gloves and boots they stood.
"...Tara…"
She hadn't said a word. Hadn't acknowledged mine the entire battle either. I'd attempted to reach out to her several times, but she just quietly worked to take me down.
Cyborg had been occupied with Robin and Blackfire, so while he saw us fight I don't think he noticed my desperate attempts to get through to her.
"Um Beast Boy?" Raven's voice forced me to snap out of my train of thought and face her. "The new girl. You're the one who fought her. Don't you have something to say?"
"She was… uh… very quiet." I replied "I'm not sure she spoke a single word throughout the whole thing." I don't know what came over me, to lie to the others. Well not really lie, but to withhold so much information. But for some reason I didn't want them to know the full truth about her.
They began to speculate on whether she could speak at all, while my mind drifted back to the girl I met at the pizzeria.
There was no way that she was actually working under Slade and Robin. Her silence only proved that. They had to mind controlling her or something.
So in that moment I made a vow:
I would take Slade, Blackfire, and the traitor down and save Tara. No matter what it took.
The next chapter will be longer and have a lot more RobBlack, I promise!
